I am envisioning a peaceful co-existence of wild mustangs, sage grouse, and campers awaiting the dawn to view a wild herd for the first time. They are on rented horses that have done this trip many times with different humans. The rent supports the horses and the human families they belong to. The “guide” too makes his living from these “mustang watching” tours. The closest towns also benefit from the tourists eager to spot the elusive mustangs. There are bed & breakfasts, gift shops, restaraunts, and annual festivals – all in honor of our majestic wild American herds. Sign me up! I need a vacation and can’t think of anything I’d rather do.

I Just wanted to thank Willie for standing up for the horses in this country and for helping to save them from such a horrible fate in slaughter houses. They are such a greatpart of American history
and also founders of this once proud land.
With so many animal horror stories on the news every day to have an American icon like
Willie in the fight to save lives is a glimmer of light and hope.
I am a die hard Willie Nelson fan listen to his music all the time when I am out on the
tractor and even got divorced from my 1st husband thanks to “The last thing I needed the first thing this morning..
I run a small not for profit horse rescue in upstate NY and although I can only do so much
I am out there trying and hoping..to save as many Americans (horses and donkeys) as I can.
God Bless

Thank you, Willie, for promoting Peace on Earth. Jack Kornfield said, “Life is so hard – how can we be anything but kind?” and Thich Nhat Han said, “There is no way to Peace – Peace IS the way.” Peace and Love from Florissant, Missouri

I have always been a fan of Willie Nelson’s music ever since I was a little girl sitting with my daddy listening to the tunes. As I grew older, I became more aware of the many causes that he supports. The establishment of peace is one that I hold near and dear. After reading the article in the Parade Magazine, I had to come and check out the cause. As a Montessori educator it is my job to teach peace and conflict resolution through communication to my students. It is very refreshing to see that institutions such as this one are working towards that same goal. I’m going to keep on working on establishing peace and eradicating prejudice in my small southern town. I’m sad to say but that is still hard to do even this day in time.
Forever Keeping It Real,
Melissa

Peace on earth starts within each of us when we bite our tongues to hold back our need to be right.
It starts when we allow others to speak their mind.
It starts when we accept others points of view.
I wholeheartedly endorse Willie’s resolve to support the loving process of creating peace on earth.
